Scotstoun House
An elegant exercise in concrete, steel and glass, set in parkland; Scotstoun House is an exemplar of 1960’s construction: uncompromisingly modernist and aspirational. Its £3.5m renovation and extension combined several challenges: the preservation and modification of an iconic grade B listed modernist building, it’s re-interpretation to meet modern aspirations & flexible agile working; and finally, a test case in holistic sustainable refurbishment applied to a sub-standard building frame work.
The result has been the creation of beautiful, flexible and responsive working environments, with the extended and modified building awarded BREEAM 'excellent‘, and an ECP ‘A’ rating. Ultimately the Building has been rejuvenated and re-established its place within the Arup oeuvre of quality architecture.
